He explained that they didn't get along when they were kids and Aaron had made his life hell as a teenager, taunting him and bullying him for being gay.

After Aaron apologised, the pair went to the pub, but Aaron had an altercation with Ben’s friend.

This comes after Aaron received a letter confirming his divorce from Robert Sugden had been finalised.

Liv tried to convince her brother that Ben seems a decent guy - but Aaron hasn't been seen on screen since.

However, after nearly a month, Aaron was back - even if it was just a fleeting scene in the cafe.

But fans were delighted nonetheless, with many taking to Twitter.

Tisha said: "Nice seeing Aaron tonight."
